I searched before I came here. I don't want to use he stock set up. I would like electric instead of vacuum.
Any suggestions?

As mentioned before bolts in, uses the original arms, and is an inexpensive replacement for vacuum wipers. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2006 Posts: 205 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jan 2006 Posts: 205 |
